    Everyone made my dad feel so comfortable in the last months of his life. They also gave my mom some much needed time to catch her breath and take care of herself. The team at Accredited really went above and beyond!

    Accredited Hospices of America took care of my great grandmother a few years back. We had tried a few hospices before and they either didn't help much. We needed the help since my mother was her care taker and she fell ill. Accredited helped immensely by providing regular baths, getting all the equipment we needed, helping with feeding, and managing her medication. They were always on time and effecient in their care. If we had any benefit questions they were immediately answered by the social worker. When her Alzheimer's reached stage 4 they helped us understand her symptoms. I really can't overstate how big of a deal it was to receive the care she got. They even helped my family deal with the grief once she had passed by talking with their chaplain. The difference from our previous experiences was night and day. It was impossible to reach anyone at the other hospice. The nurse came once a month if that and the CNA would do the bare minimum for maybe 5 minutes. They came recommended by our doctor and we had heard good things from previous patients. I'm glad we took a leap of faith and gave them a chance. If you were like me stuck in a bad situation with a terrible hospice company I would implore you to reach out so that they can help get you and your family back on the right path.

    Accredited was a blessing to my best friend and her family. They were able to spend her mother’s final days at her side while she remained comfortable and well cared for. Thank you for giving them peace during a very difficult time.

    Accredited Hospices made it possible for me to bring my mom home during the pandemic last year when she couldn’t have visitors in the nursing home. They provided everything we needed and supported us as we spent that last week with mom at her bedside. After seeing her children and grandchildren, she passed comfortably and peacefully. I highly recommend the team at Accredited Hospices - they are compassionate and caring and treated us like family.

    I have waited some time to place some kind of review against this shamble of a company. I did this to properly grieve and not have this review become emotional or obsessed with what could have happened if we had hired someone who was competent. If you are looking over this looking on who to call for your family member, please choose literally any other stay in Nurse or Hospice care for them. My father was given very little care in the last days of his life. I cannot express the amount of pain or anguish this company has caused my family or the disrespect that they gave to my father in his last days. They wanted us to administer the pills into my fathers rectum during the time that they should be there, but decidedly were not. They embarrassed my father by administering the pills in front of his daughter in law while he was still conscious. They neglected to actually be their during the hours that they said that they would be there, leaving my dying father alone with his children at home with very little or no clue on how to handle the situation. When they were their, it seemed to make the situation worse entirely, either neglecting our father and complaining to us about the drive, or complaining to us about her personal life. They began to look through every single cabinet and drawer despite not asking to what she was looking for and beginning to search our entire house without consent and had to be stopped on three separate occasions. The issue and question in the companies competence comes into play by not only the alone time my father had without a nurse, but the amount of nurses we needed to go through to find one that wouldn't look through our things or talk about her personal shitty life was far too high. If someone I knew today had a dying loved one and they asked my opinion of this shame of a company I would give them the same answer I have given all of you. Pay a little more to get someone who will be there with them, give them care, be tentative to their needs, and have some respect for the house they are in. I waited 6 months to write something about this horrible company. I will paste this same response in every conceivable outcropping I can in hopes that someone somewhere does not have their loved one disrespected in such a manner that mitigates or downplays the feelings of those who have lost a loved one. Please take your loved ones somewhere else. Never let these people get close to the people that you care about. Thank you for reading this and hopefully this will allow for someone to not have more pain than they are already bearing in their loved ones last days.

    The care provided by this hospice is amazing. Their staff is caring, compassionate and always available to answer questions. Regardless of when we needed help, our nurse was just a call away. They listened to our family and always made sure that we were comfortable and included in the plan of care for our family member. We can not recommend this hospice enough. If you need hospice care, you only need to make one call That is to Accredited Hospices of America.

      About Accredited Hospices of America in Houston, Texas

      Hospice care is provided to patients with an advanced, life-limiting illness or injury. The focus shifts from curative to that of comfort, and care is provided that supports the physical, emotional, mental and spiritual needs of patients and their families. At the heart of hospice care is the belief that each of us has the right to end our journey comfortably and with dignity, and that our families will receive the necessary support to allow us to do so.

      The hospice doctor (and possibly the patient’s personal doctor) along with a case manager, typically a registered nurse, work together to provide comfort care which is designed to alleviate physical pain and symptoms. Certified nursing aides (CNA) and home health aides (HHA) visit multiple times a week and assist with more routine needs such as bathing and dressing, serving meals and helping patients to eat, turning or repositioning patients who are bedridden and many other tasks. A social worker, chaplain and volunteers work to provide social, emotional and spiritual support to both the patient and their family.

      Related: Accredited Healthcare of America provides four levels of care to meet the needs of patients and their families.

      The interdisciplinary hospice team:

      • Develops a care plan that meets each patient’s individual needs for pain management and symptom control
      • Manages the patient’s pain and symptoms according to their care plan

      • Provides needed drugs, medical supplies, and equipment
      • Coaches the family on how to care for the patient
      • Delivers special services like speech and physical therapy when needed
      • Assists in arrangement of short-term inpatient care available when pain or symptoms become too difficult to manage at home, or the caregiver needs respite time
      • Provides bereavement care and counseling to surviving family and friends
